Labiaplasty
is a cosmetic genital surgical procedure that reduces the size or
change the shape of the small lips on the outside of the vagina (the
labia minora).Many women are born with large or irregular labia.
Others develop this condition after childbirth or with aging. The
appearance of the enlarged labia can cause embarrassment with a
sexual partner or loss of self esteem. Some women just want to look
"prettier" like the women they see in magazines or in
films. Chronic labial irritation can sometimes develop in women
who wear tight clothing. Discomfort can occur with sex, sports or
other physical activities. Labiaplasty can greatly enhance the
cosmetic appearance of the outer vagina giving many women greater
confidence and self esteem. Women whose labia become irritated and
painful will often find relief after surgery.

PERFECT
PROCEDURE:

To
forget about irritation caused for elongation of the labiaTo
correct tears or deformity that can occurur as a result of childbirthTo
reduce the fatty excess tissue in the pubic regionTo
create more even appearance between your right and left labia minorTo
reduce of the fatty excess tissue in the pubic region.

HOW
WILL THE PROCEDURE BE PERFORMED?

The
procedure involves small incisions to remove the scar, or excess
tissue, or even the edges

ANESTHESIAWe
perform this procedure under local anaesthesia and complementary
sedation.You will be asleep during the procedure and will awaken
within minutes after the surgery is completed. You will not be
paralyzed or intubated during the surgery. Please note that this
is different at other facilities where the patient is often awake
during the surgical procedure. We feel that our patients are
more comfortable using this form of anesthesia.

SURGERY
LENGTHBetween
1 and 2 hours

RECOVERYYou
can go to your hotel right after the surgery.You can shower on
the next day after surgery.You can resume normal everyday light
activities the same or next day.However we recommend avoiding
strenuous exercise for at least four weeks and possibly
longer.

Sexual activity usual can resume four to six weeks
after the surgery.

Will
Labiaplasty Surgery Result In Decrease In Sensation? For
the vast majority of women the clitoris is the structure associated
with sensory pleasure, not the labia. As such you should not
notice any lossof pleasurable sensation after surgery.

Will
Labiaplasty Alter The Skin Surrounding My Clitoris? Usually
this area is not altered during the surgery. Some women do have
excessive skin in this area and it can be trimmed to give a more
pleasing and natural appearance at the time of surgery. This can
be discussed at the time of consultation.

Will
My Sexual Partner Notice A Difference After my Labiaplasty Surgery?
If
the labia were interfering with intercourse, both of you will notice
an improvement. Visually, your partner should notice that your
labia are now smaller and better proportioned.

PAIN
There
is only minimal pain that is mostly gone by the second day and
easily controlled by medications.

REMOVAL
OF THE STITCHESThe
stitches do not need to be removed, since an absorbable surgical
thread is used.

BRUISES
AND SWELLINGNo
bruising is the usual. Swelling is mild to moderate and peaks at two
to three days then disappears rapidly over the next three weeks.

SCARSVery
small

VAGINOPLASTY
/ Vaginal Tightening

A
vaginoplasty is a surgical procedure that tightens the vagina. This
is done by removing excess vaginal lining and tightening the
surrounding soft tissues and muscles.During delivery of a baby
the vagina and surrounding tissues and muscles become stretched.
After delivery the vagina may return to a more "normal"
size, but it often fails to return to its' pre pregnancy
diameter. Generally, the more vaginal deliveries, the worse the
condition gets. Many women will complain of decreased sensation and
sexual satisfaction during intercourse. Commonly this is due to a
lack of friction. Often their partner may notice a change although he
may say nothing.

Vaginal tightening surgery will tighten the
vagina and surrounding tissues yielding a vaginal tightness similar
to before the patient had children.

We have also had numerous
patients who feel loose although they have never had children. On
physical exam they indeed had a vaginal diameter that was greater
than expected. Vaginoplasty surgery can help these women as
well.

PERFECT
PROCEDURE:

To
reshape your vagina

To
satisfy your sexual partner as the first time

To
rejuvenate your vagina.

To
correct the problem of stretched vaginal muscles resulting from
multiple childbirths

HOW
WILL THE PROCEDURE BE PERFORMED?The
most common vaginoplasty technique performed on women in our
community uses tissue from the existing genitalia to create the
vagina (the penile inversion technique); although in some cases
the lack of tissue may require additional skin grafts taken from
the buttocks or near the hipbones.

It
can be performed in women of any age.

The
goal of the surgery is to increase the fiction experienced by sexual
partners during intercourse, hence improving pleasure. Women
often feel greater self esteem after the procedure and improved
confidence.

ANESTHESIAWe
perform this procedure under local anaesthesia and complementary
sedation.You will be asleep during the procedure and will awaken
within minutes after the surgery is completed. You will not be
paralyzed or intubated during the surgery. Please note that this
is different at other facilities where the patient is often awake
during the surgical procedure. We feel that our patients are
more comfortable using this form of anesthesia.
